Hosea 11:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ I won’t act on the heat of my anger;
        I won’t return to destroy Ephraim;
    for I am God and not a human being,
        the holy one in your midst;
    I won’t come in harsh judgment.
¹⁰ They will walk after the Lord,
        who roars like a lion.
        When he roars,
        his children will come trembling from the west.
¹¹ They will come trembling like a bird,
        and like a dove from the land of Assyria;
        and I will return them to their homes, says the Lord.
